The Legends • In Their Own Words
Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber talks about Evita, Jesus Christ Superstar, Whistle Down The Wind, Cats, Sunset Boulevard and Phantom Of The Opera, while dealing with the claim that he s a "control freak", and answering the inevitable question - "Will you work with Tim Rice again?"
The current edition includes a 6,000 word interview with Roger Cook - who in the 60's wrote countless pop hits, before quitting England for Nashville where he proceeded to become one of the hottest country songwriters around! Also included is an exclusive interview with one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time Gordon Lightfoot, whose songs have been covered by everybody from Elvis Presley to Bob Dylan.
We also talk to Barry Mason whose songs have been recorded by everybody from Tom Jones to Elvis Presley, as well as country songwriter Tom T Hall whose beautiful lyrics have earned him the nickname of "The Storyteller".
